The bolt in question seems to be size M10 1.0 and has a #14 head.
The other three bolts are #17 head, as are the four left side bolts.
Is this normal phenomena for the right side only.
The odd bolt has stripped on tightening to Cardisc torque specification.
Any of the other bolts cannot be used instead as they are fractional larger.
I need to know whether the stripped bolt is correct size?
This is the top outer bolt on the right side.
Ta,
Neville.
